[quote=Anonymous]It's because Ward 1's vaccination rate for older people is higher than Ward 5, 7, and 8's. They're prioritizing vaccines to the places where the fewest people have been vaccinated. And arguably, the folks who already had covid are probably at lower risk of getting or spreading it again, so overall case count (especially since some of those cases were many months ago) may not be the best metric. Finally, places like Mary's Center, Unity, La Clinica del Pueblo, and Bread for the City, all of which serve many low-income residents of CH, have their own allocation of vaccines and are contacting their patients directly, so they don't have to go through the city portal unless they want to.[/quote]
